Customer Feedback:
Live Oak Decks
“I was so impressed with their knowledge about decks and foundations. They caught something that the original designer of the house missed, and added some support beams under our deck that serve as part of the foundation. They were responsive, and I was very happy with them.”

Customer Feedback:
Lance Painting & Decorating
“We’ve been using Lance for 10 years now. He’s done the outside of our house twice, and the inside as well. Everything is always left neat, and he’s a pleasure to work with. He has a great eye for color, and always lets me know if I’m going in the wrong direction!”
